Missing 1881 census
« on: Wednesday 08 September 04 14:50 BST (UK) »
Hi All,

Are you having a fruitless search on the 1881 census?

I found this site...


Which says that the following census are nmissing from the films (which is what LDS trans were done from).

http://www.ktb.net/~dwills/scotref/18811959.htm

PARISH NUMBER/ COUNTY/ PARISH NAME
124/ Moray/ Abernethy
399/ Fife/ Abbotshall
758/ Peebles/ Broughton
822/ Dumfries/ Dunscore

I knew a significant proportion of the Dumfries census was missing - see post from Audrey in Dumfriesshire...

Cheers,
Pam

Not entirely true...

Abernethy, Moray can be found in Abernethy & Kincardine, Inverness-shire (90a)
Abbotshall, Fife can be found in Kirkcaldy & Abbotshall, Fife (442)
Broughton, Peebles-shire can be found in Kilbucho, Broughton and Glenholm, Peebles-shire (763)

The 1881 censuses known to be missing are the second half of Dumfries (821) and the whole of Dunscore (822), both Dumfries-shire.
